The Asics Gel Peake 3 offers GEL cushioning and a durable outsole for cricketers. Here is who it suits and how it compares on price.
Asics Gel Peake 3 cricket shoes review: cushioned grip for serious players
The Asics Gel Peake 3 Cricket Shoes are listed at ₹6,399 on InstaSport, reduced from ₹7,999. According to the listing, they offer superior comfort with GEL cushioning, optimal grip and support on the pitch, and a durable outsole, for cricketers of all levels. This review explains what that means for Indian conditions and where the shoe fits against cheaper choices. For fundamentals, read how to choose cricket shoes.
Key features from the listing
- GEL cushioning. Designed to absorb impact, useful for fielders and bowlers who land hard repeatedly.
- Durable outsole. Built to hold up on turf and hard wickets.
- Grip and support. Intended to help with stable running and turning.
The listing places it in the stud shoes category. A related ASICS Gel-Peake 3 listing (white/jasper green) is described for turf and hard wickets and is priced at ₹6,799. Check the product page for sizing and specification details.
Who it suits
Regular club and academy players who spend long hours on their feet are the clearest fit, because cushioning helps with fatigue over a full day. Fast bowlers and all-rounders also benefit. If you play only the occasional weekend game with a tennis ball, you may not need this level of shoe.
How it compares
| Shoe | Price | Positioning |
|---|---|---|
| Asics Gel Peake 3 | ₹6,399 | GEL cushioning, durable outsole |
| Asics Gel Peake 2 GS | ₹5,199 | Earlier model; lightweight and cushioned |
| Puma 22 FH Rubber | ₹4,264 | Rubber sole |
| SG Club 6.0 | ₹1,359 | Budget club shoe |
| DSC Jaffa Neo | ₹1,679 | Entry-level |
The step up to the Peake 3 is a premium of several thousand rupees over entry shoes, so it makes most sense if you play often. Compare it with another ASICS model in our Gel-Gully 7 review.
Fit and care tips
- Try shoes with the socks you play in; leave a thumb's width at the toe.
- Clean mud after matches and dry in shade, not direct sun.
- Check stud wear regularly, as worn studs reduce grip and raise slip risk.
Verdict
The Gel Peake 3 is a solid purchase for committed club cricketers who value cushioning and grip. Casual players will do well with a cheaper pair. For other options, see our best cricket shoes in India.
